Auction result well in line with expectations
The work Rebab Player (Esquisse) by Hussein Bicar was auctioned at Bonhams in London in December 2019. The price achieved of GBP 5,062.50 (€ 5,983.28) was within expectations - the estimate range had previously been set by the auction house as GBP 4,000.00 – 8,000.00. Of course, this price has nothing to do with the top prices that other works by Hussein Bicar achieve. The highest price we have observed so far was reached by the work Harvest I in October 2016 with an auction result of USD 247,500.00 (€ 225,779.97).
Auktionsergebnis im Rahmen der Erwartungen
Die Arbeit Rebab Player (Esquisse) von Hussein Bicar kam im Dezember 2019 bei Bonhams in London zur Auktion. Der dabei erzielte Preis von GBP 5.062,50 (€ 5.983,28) lag im Rahmen der Erwartungen – die Schätzpreisspanne war von dem Auktionshaus zuvor mit GBP 4.000,00 – 8.000,00 angegeben worden. Dieser Preis hat freilich nichts mit den Spitzenpreisen zu tun, die andere Arbeiten von Hussein Bicar erzielen. Den höchsten von uns bisher beobachteten Preis erreichte die Arbeit Harvest I im Oktober 2016 mit einem Auktionsergebnis von USD 247.500,00 (€ 225.779,97).
